Day 42 – Don’t Consider Your Negative Situation

“And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara’s womb”. Romans 4: 19.

In Romans 4:19 the Lord is showing us the experience and the example of the faith that Abraham had. It says, ‘being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead’.

My focus today is on what you should not consider. Abram considered not his own body now dead, that’s number 1. He did not consider also, that he was a hundred years of age, that’s number 2. Number 3, Abraham did not consider the fact that Sarah’s womb was dead. Consider not.

The fact that he did not consider does not mean he did not know. He was aware of this fact of medical report! He was aware of his situation. But he did not give it a consideration. His consideration was the word of God. His mind was filled with God’s promise. That should be your attitude today. Do not consider any negative circumstance; give it no thought. You might have heard negative news; do not give it consideration over and above the good news that you know in the word. 

Whatever you believe or trust God for. Let your thought be focused only on what the promise of the father is. Do not give consideration to all the bad information you have received about your wife, about your child, about your finances, about your health, or whatever else it is. Think on God’s word. Consider the promise of your father. Do not consider the facts that look negative. God will give you peace today as you go in faith in Jesus name, amen.
